Well the snow storm hit yesterday here on the coastal side of North Carolina. Everything in the area is closed and there are hardly anyone on the streets....hopefully. The four of us are snuggled in for the day, gladly I may add. It's always nice to have husband home during the week, along with the kids.
Snow Cream was the order of the day and both girls went out and filled my big Tupperware bowl with the rather dry and powdery stuff. I grew up in the north, Upstate NY, and never EVER had I heard of snow cream until I moved to the south. Anyway, here is the recipe that seems to be our favorite. There are many Many variations, some with butter, some with sweetened condensed milk, some with chocolate, but we like the plain vanilla version best.
First, send the kiddos out with a large bowl to get the snow with the very careful instructions that they get the snow from the MIDDLE not top and definitely NOT the bottom! No yellow snow either...yuck!
Then to the parental inspected snow, add:
2 cups of whole milk...or as much as needed to make it creamy
1 Tbsp of vanilla
1/3 - 1/2 cup sugar
Mix until fluffy, smooth, and enjoy!!
